IMPROVEMENTIN SLEEVE-ADJ USTERS.

Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 170,64 1 dated November30, 1875; application filed October 16, 1875.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, ALFRED Pnnneo, of the city, county, and State of NewYork, have invented a new and useful Improvem entin Sleeve- Adjuster, ofwhich the following is a specificanon:

Figure 1 is a view illustrating the use of my improved sleeve-adjuster.view of a part of a shirt to which my improvement has been applied.

Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.

The object of this invention is to furnish an improved attachment forshirts to enable the cuffs or lower parts of the sleeves to be raisedupon the arms and held above the wrists, so that when the wearer is atwork, or when washing the hands, the cuffs may be removed from contactwith dust or water, and may thus be kept neat'and clean, and which shallbe so constructed that it may be fastened and unfastened withoutremoving the coat.

The invention consists in the combination of a strap or tab providedwith a button-hole or hook, and a button, button-hole, or eyeletholewith the upper part of the sleeve andthe yoke or shoulder of a shirt, ashereinafter fully described.

A represents a shirt, to the upper part of the sleeve of which isattached a strap or tab,

Fig. 2 is a detail B. In the tab B is formed a button-hole, to-

enable it to be buttoned upon a button, 0, attached to the yoke orshoulder of the shirt A near the seam that joins the said yoke orshoulder with the sleeve.

If desired, a hook and an eye, eyelet-hole, or button-hole may be usedas a fastening inpose and apply the adjuster; but under my presentinvention this is rendered unnecessary; hence What I claim is The tab B,arranged at the top or shoulder of sleeve and fastening on the yoke ofshirt, as and for the purpose specified.

ALFRED PEREGO.
